DuroBumps are designed to provide smooth, progressive dampening for your truck suspension, greatly reducing hard bottom-outs. Proudly made in the USA, DuroBumps are made with dual durometer (hardness) rubber, eliminating the typical shell-shock effect of OEM bump stops and providing much greater control and comfort.
The DuroBumps DBF17T is intended to replace the rear-mounted OEM bump stops on the front passenger and driver sides of the truck. The DBF17T will not limit wheel up-travel.
It's slightly taller than OEM bump stops, allowing it to compress under load to reduce impact just prior to the ultimate stop.
Features and benefits
Improved handling - Dual durometer (hardness) rubber allows DuroBumps to act as secondary coil springs that increase compression loads progressively in a smooth, predictable fashion.
Mounts in OEM location - Easily bolts into the OEM mounting location with no modifications required, ensuring a secure fit.
No loss of up-travel - DuroBumps will not reduce suspension/wheel travel.
Increased suspension life - DuroBumps greatly extend the service life of the other suspension components by reducing bottom-outs. DuroBumps absorb the impact, saving critical suspension components from excessive wear and extending service intervals for shocks, ball joints, and control-arm bushings.
Reduced bump steer - By absorbing the suspension's up-travel inertia, DuroBumps greatly reduce the energy applied through the tie-rod ends and steering rack. This lessens the shock load and wear and tear on the inner and outer tie-rods, steering rack, and steering-rack bushings.
Small, compact, application-specific - Designed to fit specific truck models: no universal fit spacers required and no loss of wheel/suspension up-travel.
Smooth and silent - Unlike Hydro bumps, DuroBumps are whisper-quiet on contact.
Solid mounting base - A 3/16 inch steel base plate provides strong support for DuroBumps and helps ensure solid mounting. The base plate is powder-coated to help prevent corrosion.
Premium bump stops - DuroBumps are proudly made in the USA, using the highest quality raw materials.
Provided mounting hardware - Every set of DuroBumps comes with JIS 10.9 zinc-coated hex head metric bolts and single-use thread locker, ensuring a strong, secure fit.
Note: For off-road use only. By installing these aftermarket bump stops, the user assumes all risk and liability. DuroBumps are not designed for towing applications.

What's included:
- (2) Two front DuroBumps
- (2) Two JIS 10.9 M10 1.25 mm x 35 mm flange bolts
- (1) Single-use medium thread locker
- (1) One Free sticker
Tools required:
- Jack and jack stands
- Lug wrench OR 19 mm deep socket
- Groove-lock pliers, pipe wrench, or similar
- Scraper or wire brush to clean debris
- 14 mm deep socket
- Torque wrench
Instructions:
Pre-soak OEM bump stop with penetrating oil to make removal easier. Pay careful attention to the threaded stud that mounts the bump stop to the frame and the threads of the stud that are exposed beyond the nut.
Step 1: Following vehicle manufacturer recommendations, use a properly rated jack. Raise the front of the vehicle, and support the frame rails with jack stands. Remove front wheels from truck.
Be sure to use jack stands!
Step 2: Both Passenger and driver side of the vehicle have (2) OEM bump stops per side located on the frame rail above the Lower Control Arm. Remove the rear OEM bump stops with groove-lock pliers, pipe wrench, or similar. Be careful not to break the threaded stud on the OEM bump stop during removal.
Step 3: Use a scraper or wire brush and clean any mud/ debris from the frame.
Step 4: Insert provided flange bolt into the new front DuroBumps and coat the threads with the provided single-use medium (blue) thread locker.
Step 5: Install the DuroBumps at the rear of the lower control arm, using a 14mm deep socket. Tighten the bolt until snug (12 - 15 ft. lbs.) Do not over tighten. The OEM bump stop that is located at the front of the lower control arm will remain in place.
Step 6: Reinstall wheels and lower vehicle back to the ground. Be sure to tighten lug nuts to vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.
Please note: DuroBumps are intended to be installed at the rear of the lower control arm only.
